The Conservation Technology Information Center (CTIC), the USDA Sustainable Research and Education (SARE) Program and the American Seed Trade Association are conducting a cover crop survey to gather information on whether or not producers are planting cover crops. The fourth annual survey should take 5-15 minutes to complete and is seeking information on decision making and the use of cover crops.  CTIC and SARE make the results of the survey public and the information helps to inform the debates on cover crop adoption, what influences decisions on the use of cover crops and soil health discussions.  You can take the survey, and opt to register to win a $100 gift card until May 1.  The survey can be found at http://tinyurl.com/ccsurvey2016. Past survey results are available on the CTIC website at:  http://www.conservationinformation.org/Cover%20Crops/
